the lyrin costume

Elyse: What's this then?
Oni: That's the Goodreau we ordered.


Elyse: She's shorter then I was expecting.
Oni: no idea, She's the 17" she was supposed to be.
Elyse: What's with the ribbon?


Elyse: Oh, she's tied to her bed, kinky.
Oni: That's her shipping pillow, though I guess it would work as a bed.


Elyse: I'm assuming this is her wig?
Oni: yup, kinda nice they sent it seperate to protect it.


Elyse: Oh blondie, where for art thou blondie!
Allison: Lets get these ties off...


Allison: There we go, and off this comes...
Elyse: Alas, poor blondie! I knew her, Allison, a gal of infinite jest, of most excellent fancy. She hath bore me on her back a thousand times, and now how abhorr'd in my imagination it is!


Allison: *giggle*
Elyse: Hmm, sorry blondie, we don't fit together so well.
Oni: Looks like Elyse has volunteered.


Elyse: Wait, what? Allison can do it!
Allison: I'm off to classes, enjoy yourself Elyse.


oni: Come on now, show it to us
Elyse: I refuse.
oni: Fine, I guess we can return this underwear you've been asking for...


Elyse: How's this?
oni: better, now the hoodie.

Elyse: I think it needs some fluffing
Oni: who knows how long it was packaged, I'm sure it does.


Elyse: oh well, Hello, I'm a cowardly lion. meow. ... happy?
oni: yup.
Elyse: Good, bye bye pastel dress.


Elyse: Have to do something about these purple ribbons, but very nice otherwise!


oni: Ack! don't put them on here, you changed over there for everything else!

Elyse: fine, fine, but you will take one more picture for me.
oni: really?
Elyse: Yup, you owe me for that lion costume.
oni: Fine.



So, I've learned I've been horribly spoiled by Obitsu. However, I wasn't expecting too much for a $40 fully clothed 17" doll (though apparently the MSRP is $160).

ACK! I am jealous! $40 for a Goodreau fullset? WOW! Isn't the Goodreau going to join your family? And I love Elyse's new underwear - very nice!! So - what has Obitsu spoiled for you? They do tend to do that!

I've gotten used to just setting the girls down and expecting them to stand there. They're amazingly well balanced. ^.^;;

I'd originally gotten the Goodreau for her outfit, but she is starting to grow on me. Pose-ability wise, the Goodreau likes to just lay down. I'm hoping she's poses better when she's not really cold as I've gotten her to finally sit up on her own instead of being wedged against/in the couch, though that may not happen till spring/summer (it's about 55 degrees F in my room with the heaters running currently). I'm also hoping some of the apparent deformations in her joint sockets can be fixed with a hot bath (her head is practically locked in the one position and some of the slots for the elastic to pass through have warped into hourglass-ish shapes that the elastic can't fit through).
